Execution order

[DarkBlue]

Here is some code from a pyqt4.5.4 application on python 2.6

def findData(self):

self.ui.label.setText('Processing... ')

# here we do something which takes a few seconds
self.refreshGrid()



The problem is that the text in the self.ui.label is only changed
on screen after the self.refreshGrid() has finished executing
rather than before.

How do I achieve the expected result ?

Thanks

You can make Qt process all pending events once, via
QCoreApplication.processEvents.

This should trigger the redraw.
